This is a hidden gem (so nice that I would like to keep it for myself)!
It is in a local and authentic neighbourhood, completely different from downtown Bkk. If you want to get a more authentic and simple experience of bkk, this is for you. I have been to Bkk several times, and I like to get away from downtown and feel the "realness" of a city.
Their house is nice, comfortable and safely enclosed. A nice house! In the morning a local breakfast was served, great hospitality! A few minutes walk was food places with local food stalls, markets, 7/11. Taxis + buses + scooters could be caught from here.
10 min walk to the metro/skytrain/BTS by foot, and then about 15 min ride to downtown.
Bed was comfortable, I slept with only the fan on and it was a nice breeze from the open windows. Aircon was avaiable.
The room was bigger than I had expected, nice layout, bright bathroom with natural light which i like. There was a desk that I could sit and work by.
Baanfangthon and her sister were truly outstanding. She met me my the BTS station to guide me to the house when I arrived, were kind to show me around the area a little, and had good recommandations without being imposive. Correspondance was very good, fast replies. They were very accomodating and helpful when I for example asked to leave my luggage to pick up later.
They have several cats, so if you are sensitive or allergic, this is not a suggested place for you.
Great, great place! Thank you ladies!
